RV and bus towing in Akron depends on length, weight and whether the vehicle can steer and roll. Call (234) 312-4777 with the make, type and length, and say whether people are on board. Published local car-tow figures of $75–$150 are a market reference for cars, not a quote for a motorhome or coach.
Nobody is calling about an RV because the tow is interesting. The motorhome has broken down with the bedding, the fridge and the family still inside it.
So the first question is whether anyone can stay aboard or needs somewhere to wait. The second is whether the vehicle can be towed on its own wheels or has to be lifted.
Can anyone ride along in the RV or stay inside while it is towed?
Do not assume so. Ask the dispatcher before the truck arrives, because riding in a vehicle during a tow may not be allowed. Plan for where passengers and pets will wait, especially if the motorhome is also your lodging for the trip.
What do I secure before it is hooked up?
Retract slide-outs, awnings and steps, and latch the cabinets and the fridge door. Take medication, documents, valuables and anything you need for the next night out of the unit. A bus or coach adds its own check: whether a charter group is still on board.
- Length, including any tow bar, bike rack or rear carrier
- Whether it is a Class A, B or C motorhome, a bus, or a travel trailer
- Whether the vehicle has a towed car attached behind it
- Whether the steering and drivetrain work
How is the price worked out?
Local figures run about $75–$150 for a five-mile car tow, and they are market numbers, not what Akron Towing Service charges. A large coach or RV is quoted per job, so ask for the total before you agree to anything.
Can you tow a motorhome that is also pulling a car?
Say so on the first call. The attached car changes the length, weight and way the rig is recovered. It may need to be unhooked and moved separately.
Do you tow buses?
Call (234) 312-4777 with the bus type, length and the number of people aboard. The dispatcher can then confirm whether it can be handled.
Where will my RV be taken?
Give the destination when you call, whether a repair facility or a campground. Check that the gate and the lot can fit a vehicle of that length.
